Florida Panthers: Defensive Collapse Leads to Blowout in Tampa

The Florida Panthers may have stolen a pair of points in the Canadian Capital, but there wasn’t anything special about that victory.

In case you were wondering what I was speaking about, I’m referring to the five goals that were given up to the Ottawa Senators.

One of the major themes of this season has been the breakdown on defense. Turnovers, lack of coverage/positioning, and simply being outworked are all traits that we’ve seen from the Panthers’ D core.

And since the very start to the season, the coaching staff (notably Jack Capuano) has done nothing to address these issues.
